All public schools are required to prepare and distribute a SARC (School Accountability Report Card). The purpose of the report card is to provide parents and the community with important information about each public school. A SARC can be an effective way for a school to report on its progress in achieving goals. The public may also use a SARC to evaluate and compare schools on a variety of indicators. SARCs are prepared with information from the previous school year. The 2013-14 SARCs can be obtained from the school website and district website at https://www.tracy.k12.ca.us/AboutTUSD/SitePages/SARC.aspx. Paper copies will be made available, upon request.

PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE

​

Dear Mustang Students and Families,

Welcome to the 2015-2016 school year! I am so excited to be a part of the Monte Vista Middle School Team this year. It is a privilege and an honor to serve the MVMS community as principal.

I know that great things are in store for our children this year at Monte Vista as we remain committed to meeting the needs of all our students. What makes our school great is our diversity. No two students are alike at Monte Vista. We have students learning English for the first time and we have students taking advanced courses at neighboring Merrill F. West High School. We have band students and we have student athletes. We have AVID students, special needs students, gifted students, and honor roll students. There is something for everybody at MVMS.

Our faculty and staff is dedicated to making your child's time at Monte Vista the best years possible. We need your help to do this. Get involved in your child's education. Join the PTA. Join the School Site Council. Join PIQE. Volunteer in your child's classroom. Come out and cheer on the basketball team.

Parent Homework Assignment #1

Come meet the new principal and share your ideas on how we can make MVMS the number one middle school in California. I look forward to meeting and working with all of you.
